I have photo compress for photos on android.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....photocompress

Images up to 200 and something kb work.
PDF is limited to 19kb which is ironic when after conversion to images the total size is much larger.

I have the same issue. Pictures being too large. I cant use photos directly off my android and attach to a post. I have to down load them onto my pc, modify using windows media then send them from my pc or reload them onto my phone.

Thanks Simon.

I'll take a look again John, the uploader isn't the greatest and we've historically had issues with PDF files due to the dozens of different encoding types in the base postscript.

I disagree. I've never had an issue uploading images here, but file size limits should be consistent across all file types.

Does it even work for pdf?

What happens when imgbb goes the way of photobucket...endless ruined forum threads.

[Dan Le Moignan]

Just use this https://imgbb.com/
much easier

Here is another reason the forum is out of favour.

FILE ATTACHMENTS!

Tried to upload a 3 page pdf of less than 200kb size, NUP, damn forum limits it to 19.5kb.

Piss around for half an hour converting each page to png. 3 images now total over 300kb but they can be uploaded...the stupidity of it!

Can someone have a rational look at file size limits.

i am guilty too, my main issue being my works computer doesn't like the site so every time i open a page i have to clear a 'content is blocked' box and sometimes won't upload the next page. I haven't been on for a while due to work commitments along with currently building my own house meant the cars haven't done much. My escort was meant to take me to my wedding 6 years ago and i still haven't driven it since. My sapphire sits in the garage and i may pop out in it every few weeks and that's as good as it gets i will try to be more active that's for sure

I'm far from an old member, but I am on here regularly to read back through old posts to gain some serious knowledge. This site and everyones involvement over the years is greatly appreciated.

Are there any main driving spots to head for?
Something like the NC500 etc?

You need a few days to do the NC 500. We get many tourists staying with us as our area Loch lomond is an ideal starting point. Its best to drive up the west coast coming back down the east of Scotland. We try to do it at least once a year as a small driving holiday.
The roads are very narrow and you cant go all that fast. Not that you would want to all the time and the scenery is fabulous.
Before I sold my camper hire business many of our customers wanted to know more about the NC 500.

If anyone want to throw some ideas out there then great, I’m always up for a meet or trip out somewhere

[Dan Le Moignan]

Once my car is sorted I will be back out again!
Didn't expect to be off the road for so long.
Deffo fancy a road trip next year if we can organise it, even if it’s only a few of us!

[Tricksturbo]

I know what you mean, it’s wishful thinking. I was thinking more of a get together as just the club on its own. Not tagging onto another event. Escos only gathering at a small race circuit or sprint track somewhere? Mallory, Curborough somewhere central. People pay for a ticket and then they are more inclined to go and not back out.

Sorry if all has been done before and I know it’s someone ‘taking the reins’ to organise such a thing which isn’t easy in modern day life. Plus not cost affective with the amount of members we have, I don’t know. I thought I would just chew the fat also and put it out there. Someone can reality check me and shoot me down, no hard feelings!
